I've been getting complaints from some of my users of BSA that patching servers is really slow since our upgrade to 8.9 HF1.

Here is what he is describing:

---Begin Snip

In the setup logs it shows a patch is applied and doesn't apply the next patch for over 30 minutes. Last night took almost 2.5 hours to apply 7 patches to 18 servers for the lower environment. This has been the case for all environments i have patched so far this month.

---End Snip

Let me know what logs and or items you need to have me collect to troubleshoot this further...

I went to the Control Panel > Windows Update and checked in there. It was set to never check for updates, and then I went and stopped and the Windows Update service, set it to manual and restarted it again.
